Recently the number of people viewing our website using mobile devices has gradually increased. We have therefore launched a brand new mobile site. To view the mobile version of this website just load the site on a smart phone or tablet device. You will be automatically redirected.

We know some users have found this already and prior to the launch and the feedback we have had has been positive. If you do have any feedback please use the contact website administrator link under “contact us”. We of course hope you enjoy the mobile friendly version of our website.

To get around the mobile site use the drop down arrow in the right hand corner of the screen. This will allow you to access the full menu system for the mobile site. You will also be able to use this menu to login. If you for any reason decide you don’t like the mobile site you can turn it off using the slider at the bottom of any page.

Want to look more like one of the team?  Want something uniform without having to wear the uniform?  The next order for Gloucestershire Scout Network official branded clothing will be going off soon.

If you want to order personalised hoodies, polo shirts or even aprons, you can do so through the official clothing order form.

Please ensure that we have your cleared payment by 31 May 2012.

If you’re 18 to 25 and still want to enjoy your Scouting you can by joining Scout Network. As a Scout Network Member you get to take part in all the usual great Scouting activities such as kayaking, climbing, orienteering… as well as work on projects helping to support you local community.

Scout Network can give you the opportunity to gain the many awards and qualification made available to you like Queens Scout Award and Explorer Belt to name just a couple.

You can also, if you choose, get more closely involved in working with the younger Sections and providing them with the same kind of opportunities you’ve had through Scouting.

Scout Network allows 18 to 25 year-olds who have an interest in both Scouting and their own personal development, and ultimately want to have fun, the opportunity to do so.
